Alright I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade- make life take the lemons back. Get mad. I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons, do you know who I am? I'm the man who's going to burn your house down...with the lemons! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!

As if life would just give you lemons.

We have lemon trees for that
AngryCommieKender 1 point 2 years ago
I'm not stealing them, if I don't pick them, they fall off and rot doing no good for the tree, thereby completely wasting all the energy the tree spent on making the things. There aren't a lot of marsupials or rodents that have the right type of hands/paws for meaningfully harvesting and spreading of the seeds in my neck of the desert to take care of seed distribution for the tree naturally.
Yes, I am growing lemons, avocados, limes, peaches, bananas, and figs currently in a desert with only collected rainwater, and grey water from my washing machine. There's no city water involved. It doesn't rain very often outside of the "cool autumn" season for about four months of the year, the other 8 months are "warm spring" we don't really get rain then, which is why I have 3400 gallons of rainwater storage that gets refilled in the first or second rain of the season.

"Unless life is also giving you sugar, your lemonade is going to taste like shit."

... is he making lemon-shaped piss bombs from those piss jars which are then vacuumed away for safe storage & times of need?
There might have been a mixup & life keeps accidentally giving me those lemons.

Battles have literally been won on avoiding scurvy. Can’t remember which side but Spainish armada vs England naval battles. Had spies report back they were eating sauerkraut and thus didn’t get scurvy. Hard to fight a war while sick

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
Rules
*� Be Nice!
- Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
*�️ Community Standards
- Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
- Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
- Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
- Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
*� Keep it Real
- Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
*�️ Credit Where Credit is Due
- Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
- Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
*� Post Formatting
- Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author's website.
- Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
- When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
*� Post Frequency/SPAM
- Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author's comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
*�☠️ Internationalization (i18n)
- Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
- Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
*� Moderation
- We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
- When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists
The following artists are banned from the community.
- Jago
- Stonetoss

It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.
Web Accessibility
Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.
When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you're posting:
Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what's going on. (example)
